New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) & TAIS co-presentation: The Flight of Birds and Sacred Spirits Live Videomusic Performances by Freida Abtan and Zazalie Z.

Flight of Birds by Freida Abtan: The flight of birds is a mytho-poetic look at the realm of the spirit. Women draped in peacock feathers release invisible birds from their cages. Movements of the body are abstracted to fill the empty space. There, they seem to harden into wings, extending the body towards flight.
